Ho{H1945} Ariel,{H740} Ariel,{H740} the city{H7151} where David{H1732} encamped!{H2583} add{H5595} ye year{H8141} to year;{H8141} let the feasts{H2282} come round:{H5362}

then will I distress{H6693} Ariel,{H740} and there shall be mourning{H8386} and lamentation;{H592} and she shall be unto me as Ariel.{H740}

And I will encamp{H2583} against thee round about,{H1754} and will lay siege{H6696} against thee with posted troops,{H4674} and I will raise{H6965} siege works{H4694} against thee.

And thou shalt be brought down,{H8213} and shalt speak{H1696} out of the ground,{H776} and thy speech{H565} shall be low{H7817} out of the dust;{H6083} and thy voice{H6963} shall be as of one that hath a familiar spirit,{H178} out of the ground,{H776} and thy speech{H565} shall whisper{H6850} out of the dust.{H6083}

But the multitude{H1995} of thy foes{H2114} shall be like small{H1851} dust,{H80} and the multitude{H1995} of the terrible ones{H6184} as chaff{H4671} that passeth away:{H5674} yea, it shall be in an instant{H6621} suddenly.{H6597}

She shall be visited{H6485} of Jehovah{H3068} of hosts{H6635} with thunder,{H7482} and with earthquake,{H7494} and great{H1419} noise,{H6963} with whirlwind{H5492} and tempest,{H5591} and the flame{H3851} of a devouring{H398} fire.{H784}

And the multitude{H1995} of all the nations{H1471} that fight{H6633} against Ariel,{H740} even all that fight{H6638} against her and her stronghold,{H4685} and that distress{H6693} her, shall be as a dream,{H2472} a vision{H2377} of the night.{H3915}

And it shall be as when a hungry{H7457} man dreameth,{H2492} and, behold, he eateth;{H398} but he awaketh,{H6974} and his soul{H5315} is empty:{H7386} or as when{H834} a thirsty man{H6771} dreameth,{H2492} and, behold, he drinketh;{H8354} but he awaketh,{H6974} and, behold, he is faint,{H5889} and his soul{H5315} hath appetite:{H8264} so shall the multitude{H1995} of all the nations{H1471} be, that fight{H6633} against mount{H2022} Zion.{H6726}

Tarry{H4102} ye and wonder;{H8539} take your pleasure{H8173} and be blind:{H8173} they are drunken,{H7937} but not with wine;{H3196} they stagger,{H5128} but not with strong drink.{H7941}

For Jehovah{H3068} hath poured out{H5258} upon you the spirit{H7307} of deep sleep,{H8639} and hath closed{H6105} your eyes,{H5869} the prophets;{H5030} and your heads,{H7218} the seers,{H2374} hath he covered.{H3680}

And all vision{H2380} is become unto you as the words{H1697} of a book{H5612} that is sealed,{H2856} which men deliver{H5414} to one that is learned,{H3045} saying,{H559} Read{H7121} this, I pray thee; and he saith,{H559} I cannot,{H3201} for it is sealed:{H2856}

and the book{H5612} is delivered{H5414} to him that is not learned,{H3045} saying,{H559} Read{H7121} this, I pray thee; and he saith,{H559} I am not learned.{H3045}

And the Lord{H136} said,{H559} Forasmuch{H3282} as this people{H5971} draw nigh{H5066} [unto me], and with their mouth{H6310} and with their lips{H8193} to honor{H3513} me, but have removed{H7368} their heart{H3820} far{H7368} from me, and their fear{H3374} of me is a commandment{H3925} of men{H582} which hath been taught{H3925} [them];

therefore, behold, I will proceed{H3254} to do a marvellous work{H6381} among this people,{H5971} even a marvellous work{H6381} and a wonder;{H6382} and the wisdom{H2451} of their wise{H2450} men shall perish,{H6} and the understanding{H998} of their prudent{H995} men shall be hid.{H5641}

Woe{H1945} unto them that hide{H5641} deep{H6009} their counsel{H6098} from Jehovah,{H3068} and whose works{H4639} are in the dark,{H4285} and that say,{H559} Who seeth{H7200} us? and who knoweth{H3045} us?

Ye turn things upside down!{H2017} Shall the potter{H3335} be esteemed{H2803} as clay;{H2563} that the thing made{H6213} should say{H559} of him that made{H6213} it, He made{H6213} me not; or the thing formed{H3336} say{H559} of him that formed{H3335} it, He hath no understanding?{H995}

Is it not yet a very{H4213} little while,{H4592} and Lebanon{H3844} shall be turned{H7725} into a fruitful field,{H3759} and the fruitful field{H3759} shall be esteemed{H2803} as a forest?{H3293}

And in that day{H3117} shall the deaf{H2795} hear{H8085} the words{H1697} of the book,{H5612} and the eyes{H5869} of the blind{H5787} shall see{H7200} out of obscurity{H652} and out of darkness.{H2822}

The meek{H6035} also shall increase{H3254} their joy{H8057} in Jehovah,{H3068} and the poor{H34} among men{H120} shall rejoice{H1523} in the Holy One{H6918} of Israel.{H3478}

For the terrible one{H6184} is brought to nought,{H656} and the scoffer{H3887} ceaseth,{H3615} and all they that watch{H8245} for iniquity{H205} are cut off;{H3772}

that make a man{H120} an offender{H2398} in [his] cause,{H1697} and lay a snare{H6983} for him that reproveth{H3198} in the gate,{H8179} and turn aside{H5186} the just{H6662} with a thing of nought.{H8414}

Therefore thus saith{H559} Jehovah,{H3068} who redeemed{H6299} Abraham,{H85} concerning the house{H1004} of Jacob:{H3290} Jacob{H3290} shall not now be ashamed,{H954} neither shall his face{H6440} now wax pale.{H2357}

But when he seeth{H7200} his children,{H3206} the work{H4639} of my hands,{H3027} in the midst{H7130} of him, they shall sanctify{H6942} my name;{H8034} yea, they shall sanctify{H6942} the Holy One{H6918} of Jacob,{H3290} and shall stand in awe{H6206} of the God{H430} of Israel.{H3478}

They also that err{H8582} in spirit{H7307} shall come{H3045} to understanding,{H998} and they that murmur{H7279} shall receive{H3925} instruction.{H3948}
